(Archived) Feature Request: visible author

I'd like to see the author of a note in the Mac version right away and not only in the inspector. Especially when you are working with many authors, it is important to see when you click through several notes.

What would be most important to you? Author, or last modifier?

[Frank Blome 12]

The author. Thanks for answering.

[Jackolicious 808]

Why not the last modifier too? Why is the author the most important? I'd like to learn more about how you're using EN to collaborate.

For our workflows, the author is mostly the important detail. But there are others where the last modifier is important as well.

Here is a quick description of our main workflow. When we are creating new texts, they are written in a regular text editor, like BBEdit or Textedit. The format is plain ascii, because we're writing mainly in Markdown or ASCIIdoc. The interim results gonna be checked into Git, our version controll system until they are approved by various persons. Then - when they are official - they are processed into PDF or other format and in the next step they go into Evernote.
